[Discuss] MIT usernames (was Re: KVM, virt-manager, and CentOS7)

Not quite sure how a discussion of KVM veered off into MIT auth procedures,
but it did give me a bit of nostalgia.

My shortest (and first) email address was rkb at ai (DNS became the new-new thing
a couple years later). Then for a decade or so I was richb at mit.edu until my
Athena sponsor headed off to the corporate world. Another fond memory of those
early days is the domain spdcc.com.

I guess now the most concise I could do is r at ci.net but for no good reason
other than inertia I've kept the same lengthy address for the past 24 years.

Do you have a favorite email address, past or present?
